Maybe 2025 will be the year of the #LinuxDesktop for me. #zorinos17 now running in a #dualboot setup. With the demise of #windows10eol on the cards, this could be the kick I need... Big question mark is #linux_gaming #stream on #nvidia
#WhatsMissing: A simple, #FrutigerAero-themed, #LowDPI-compatible #Linux #distro / #desktop!
And modern-day #distros really need to reconsider that!
Arch Linux servers will go offline starting July 9th, 2025, from 8 AM GMT to 12 PM GMT!

Bringing vintage tech to life in 2025 🔧✨
I installed all four editions of Linux Mint on four ThinkPad X220s:
💻 Cinnamon – Sleek & modern
🧩 MATE – Lightweight & classic
⚙️ Xfce – Ultra-fast & minimal
🧬 LMDE 6 – Debian-powered edge
Same legendary hardware, four distinct Linux experiences.
Which would you pick as your daily driver?

GNOME fixes the Trash bug from 2009!
GNOME Desktop had a bug in the Trash function where the leftover files from the user-wide expunged trash directory, found in ~/.local/share/Trash/expunged
, were not being deleted properly, and that the Nautilus file manager, which GNOME uses, inaccurately reported that the trash was empty. This bug was originally reported in Ubuntu’s Launchpad under the title of “Emptying the trash can lead to have files still on disk in expunged.”
This caused problems with the free disk space, since the bug reporter had stated that they had about 70 GB of files in the expunged directory, which were handled incorrectly when emptying the trash. Furthermore, said directory was found in the hidden .local folder underneath your home directory, which was not obvious to the average user. This was said to be due to wrong permissions being applied to the offending files, and a reproducer was found:
mkdir -p test/roottouch test/root/filesudo chown root:root test/root
This followed the two chained rules, first for trashing and second for emptying, where, ipsis verbis:
So, essentially, this boils down to:
test
directory is made by the current user (assume that the current user is aptivi
)root
directory inside the user-owned test
directory is made by aptivi
file
, which aptivi
owned, was created inside the root
directoryroot

‘s trash, since the second chained rule has been followedroot
, a non-empty directory owned by root

, and the root
directory can’t be removedroot
directory can now be found underneath the expunged
folder under aptivi
‘s .local folderThe appropriate GNOME bug tracker ticket was brought to the upstream developers six years ago from writing who confirmed that the issue was happening. According to this blog post, the merge request was submitted to the GNOME project, which was approved. The fix is now at the upstream GLib code.
An internal function was added to the I/O part of the GLib library, called check_removing_recursively()
, that checked whether “subsequently deleting the original file from the trash (in the gvfsd-trash process) will succeed.” It also checked the ownership of the files before deletion and automatically assigned the file mode (chmod)
to allow deletion.
That filled one of the TODO
tasks in the I/O code that handled emptying the trash in the internal function, g_local_file_trash()
. It said “Maybe we should verify that you can delete the file from the trash before moving it? OTOH, that is hard, as it needs a recursive scan.”
Now, you can empty the trash without worrying about the free disk space, but only if your Linux distribution uses a version of GNOME that contains this fix. We expect that this fix will land to several distributions in the coming days or weeks.
Pro tip: to eliminate the remaining expunged files after installing the fixed version of GNOME, use this trick to free up disk space.

To Arch Linux users: install plasma-x11-session if you're running KDE Plasma 6.4 on X11!

I’m not sure if this is even contentious anymore but I really like #NetworkManager
My use case is having a “split tunnel” vpn where I use dnsmasq managed by nm to resolve specific domains to a specific nm connection. Then set static routes for the vpn net and then set route weight for the public interface to be above the vpn interface.
None of this is super complex but managing it all with nm makes it easy to port to other machines and manage in general.
